Happy Retirement

 

CAS724 - National Clean your desk day-create with things found on desk

I have a terrible time getting new stamps and dies put away. I get them in the mail and try to keep them out so I can save them to Evernote and it takes a bit of time to get them put away. The Happy Retirement and Boot Prints were sitting on my desk. I grabbed them, stamped them on card stock and then stamped off the boots 2 more times to get lighter stamping.

I then popped the panel up on dimensionals and added a few scattered sequins from my tote that also sits on my desk.

I now have these stamps put away....I may need to do a few more challenges to clean off my desk to get all of the stamps and dies put away. LOL!

Valentines Day

 

FS831 - This week's incredibly talented Featured Stamper is mshatzma! - I found this gorgeous INSPIRATION.

USEIT2023 - Wood Heart

I need to use up a huge stack of wood hearts and when I saw mshatzma card and the textured burlap heart I was immediately drawn in to look at it for a closer look.

I used a wood heart for my texture and layered the strip under the heart. I added a couple of different designer papers and white heat embossed the sentiment.

Panda Birthday

 

IC892 - Vintagraph & Pinterest - here is my INSPIRATION

F4A672 - zoo animals

USEIT2022 - Bamboo die cuts

I needed to use up these bamboo die cuts from my tote and the inspiration was perfect for me to pair this cute new panda die cut with them. I also recently purchased this new happy birthday die cut.

I cut the layers and layered the bear, added a heart and die cut the birthday sentiment layering all the die cuts on an embossed bamboo.

I finished the card with a butterfly that was sitting on my desk.

More Birthday Cards

 

I can never have enough birthday cards in my stash. I have 2 for you today.

MIX519 - What's New (stamps are new)

USEIT2023 - Brad

My hubby picked out these stamps and purchased them for me for Christmas. I thought a dictionary page would be perfect for it too so I used that for the base then found some paper scraps for the rest of the layout.

I found this brad in my tote and thought it would be perfect to finish off the card.

Geek Birthday


F4A672 - zoo friends

USEIT2023 - heart stickers

I used a cute elephant from impression obsession and colored it with copics. I then found these heart stickers in my tote of items I need to use up and added them to the card.

Little Magic

 

WT930 - Mystical Creature

I just love this fun Unicorn image from Unity. I stamped the image and sentiment and cut the panel down for the slimline card front. I then colored the image with copics and added a few scattered sequins.

SC939 - This week's sketch on splitcoaststampers.com

USEIT2023 - Image

I am continuing to use up the images from my pile of stamped off images for 2023. I will also continue to use the items in my tote to try to get these items out of my craft room. I made a lot of progress in 2022 and hope to have all the images used by the end of 2023 and more of that tote gone. I hope you continue to stop by to check out my progress for 2023.

For this card I used this cute house mouse image that was in my stack of images and I colored it with copics.

I then cut the layers and added a few scattered hearts from a bag of hearts on my desk. I also added some white gel to the hearts to add a bit more interest.
